Unsatisfied with control over just their home, however, each set their sights on the mainland – Kanto, Johto, and the surrounding areas – only to find that they weren't the only ones with that same idea.

With a fletchling at his side - well, flying around in circles around his body in a manner similar to that of a cartoon - Artemis trailed through the corridors of Team Flare's Ecruteak base. Well, let's be honest here. He wasn't trailing aimlessly. He was dancing through them, earphones in and connected to a portable music player, and - as befit a music lover - he was singing along to the song currently playing. Loudly. Obnoxiously. Yep.
After spinning around to a stop and crouching down beside the door, Artemis pulled a hairpin out of his hair, snapping it in half and bending the straight half at a ninety degree angle. Perfect. By now, Artemis had fallen silent, concentrating on working on unlocking the door with his makeshift tension wrench and pick, wiggling it around and - click.
Awesome. Operation Panty Raid was now in full swing.
Not that he had actually planned a whole operation for this.
Shoving open the door to Rune's room, Artemis closed it behind himself, humming away as he went straight for - where else - the chest of drawers. He wasn't interested in actually stealing something with the intent of selling it off, or keeping it forever because he just wanted it, but hey, if he found something he wanted, it wouldn't be property of Rune's any more.
There as a marker pen sitting on top of the drawers. Raising an eyebrow, Artemis glanced down and started pulling out the drawers. Where would his fellow admin keep her underweaaar ah, got it. After rifling through her underwear and grabbing the marker pen off the top of the desk, Artemis pulled out a bra, studying it closely. He doubted that his plan would work on this bra - too lacy - so he shoved it back and brought out another, one that was plainer, and set to work on writing "Artemis was here" on the front of each of the cups, a small heart at the end. Then, Artemis started working on a pair of her underwear (let's be vague because who knows what Rune wears - girl boxers or thongs? we just don't know, not yet), writing it along the front on the waistband.
Wow, was today a great day! Normally coming out of Rune's mouth those words would be sarcastic, but that was just a thought, and not a lie. She had gotten some really nice training in, and she just got to take a bath A BATH for the first time since she washed up on the shores of Sinnoh. Rune was in a very good mood. So, with her wet haired tied up into a high pony tail, and in a tank-top and her usual short skirt that she wore when she was to lazy to wear pants.. which was always. Rune walked to her room.
As she neared closer to her room, she almost could FEEL that something was wrong. And slowly her mood was taking a turn, but assuring herself it was just her mind she continued on. Up, until she reached her room, noticed that it was no longer locked as she put her hand on the knob, and heard a faint humming inside.
Her heart raced, wondering who it could be. Maybe Neptune had finally come to see her again? Or it could just be Ulrich, the kid had a key to her room anyway. So it wouldn't be a surprise. Either way she was excited, and opened up the door. Just to see.. this dumbass.
Honestly Rune had to take a second, wow. WOW, was he really THIS stupid? Artemis, another admin, one assigned to take care of her a couple times. Was sitting there.. pulling out her underwear and writing on it. Her lacy thongs, and more lazy day underwear both scattered about.
Her next reaction was grabbing the sword next to the door and running out over to him, and attempting to tackle him down to the ground. Her voice boomed even louder and scarier than normal. "WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING YOU ASSHOLE?" Obviously, not a happy camper.

Oh, shit. Maybe he should’ve been keeping an ear out for the door unlocking. Then again, Artemis had been under the belief that Rune was in another town, keeping an eye on things over there. Regardless, he had completely ignored the sound of Hermes’ twittering – a warning to get away from the drawer most likely – in favour of opening another drawer just to have a look at how Rune organised her things. So that, in future, if Artemis ever decided to do her laundry and put it away – hey, he could be helpful sometimes! – he would know where to put it in advance.
Though pretty much the moment the drawer had been pulled out, he had been tackled, his leg getting whacked with Rune’s sword. That would leave a bruise. Oh, and his shoulder blades were gonna hurt tomorrow. What hurt right now though, was his ears from the sound of Rune’s shouting. Who knew she could be this loud?
The reaction was what he expected (though he hadn’t expected her to be at this base), however, so any intent to intimidate or scare Artemis failed. He, with a grin on his face, just started laughing. Then he started fighting to get Rune off him and onto the floor, intending on getting the upper hand by, well, pinning her down until she calmed down. Though depending on how violent she got while on top of him, he also had plans to zip out of the door – or the window if she blocked it.
“If you wanted to be on top Rune, you could’ve j-just asked!” He crowed, the grin still on his face. This situation couldn’t have turned out better. Artemis was almost thanking Arceus for Rune actually being here in Ecruteak, and for coming back earlier than he had expected.
Rune was proud of herself once she had gotten him pinned. Her lips forming into her own grin as she reached for her sword to put it right where it belonged. Right up against the perverts neck. But, because of her bad temper stopping her proper train of thought along with his words that totally threw her off guard, Rune was flipped over onto her back and the asshole was now ontop of her, sword in hand but unable to move it. Glaring at him.
What the fuck was up with him saying that? Was he TRYING to throw her off guard. WELL TWO CAN PLAY AT THAT GAME MR. ARTEMIS. "If you wanted to see my panties you could of just asked!" She shouted back at him, a lot less loud this time. Taking her legs and attempting to throw him off of her.
Rune was satisfied with her come back, a smug grin now on her face. As if she knew that he'd never expect her to make the same comment back and that it was the most brilliant thing she could of ever said or done. HAH got you~

Excellent! Now he had Rune pinned and he was safe from getting his throat sliced open, or, worse, castrated. Grinning down at her, Artemis shifted his hold on the other admin so that he could hold both wrists above her head with one hand as he wrestled with her sword hand. He didn't particularly want that sword nearby when he didn't have his own on him.
"Wouldn't you agree that angry heat-of-the-moment sex is better than sex you asked for?" Though, Artemis had absolutely no intention on pushing Rune into anything sexual. He knew what it was like to feel pressured into such a situation and he wouldn't wish it upon anyone else (unless he particularly despised a person). He did have a heart after all. He was just a troublemaker who sought danger and excitement.
Who really needed to be put on a leash. But Rune didn't have one.
... Maybe. Artemis wouldn't put it past her.
What Artemis didn't expect as he struggled to get her sword out of her hands was to be kicked in the stomach. He grimaced as he was kicked off of the other admin, coughing as he scrambled backwards and up to his feet. Well then. He had lost his advantage and while that was going to make things a bit more fun, he wasn't really in the mood to spend some time in a hospital due to stab wounds from a pissed off Rune.
Rune's arms were pinned above her and her sword was almost taken out of her hands. As he retorted back. Honestly, Rune had never really had time for a romantic relationship and thus, only had ever done anything sexual once in her life after deciding she didn't care for keeping her virginity anymore and having a friend who was doing her a nice favor. So, she wouldn't know. She wouldn't have a freaking clue actually. But, it did give her an idea on how to maybe get her revenge she guess.
"I like it better when they work for it." She commented, as she finally got the upper hand and Artemis went flying off of her. But, she dropped the sword instead of keeping her hands on it, and jumped up right after him, and attempted to push him up against the wall.
Rune was sure to keep her body pushed up next to his tightly. Her face moved up to his, closer and closer as she spoke. "But you know.. I don't mind angry heat-of-the moment either." She mentioned, not that loud but her blue eyes were looking right into his, and one of her fingers traced up his arm.
Of course, Rune was just messing with him. Not a chance would she ever be attracted to a dumbass like him, who found stupid pleasure from taking from others. But, this was a more fun kind of revenge than just beating him to a pulp that she so often got to do. Then again, if this failed. She'd probably just go back to beating the shit out of him. Hopefully, this worked to the point where someone ended up really disappointed and unsatisfied, and more bored then from her normal reaction and he'd leave her alone. At least.. that's what she told herself as to why she was doing this.

Artemis himself was a bit of a whore when it came to sex. You could even go as far to say he was addict for the pleasure that comes as a result of it - but then again, who didn't like that pleasure?
Rune's comment was met with a groan and a pout as Artemis started to bounce on his feet, his inner childishness coming out. "But working for it is so much effoooort." State the obvious, why don't you? By the time Artemis was backed against the wall, the pout had fallen off his face. Was she really going for it or was she going to pretend and then leave him a hot sweaty mess? While he hoped it was the former, his experiences with women often ended up the other way. Often.
"Really? I'm surprised." He grinned, keeping his eyes on Rune's before they fell to where her fingers lightly ran up his arm. If they pressed any harder on the skin below his elbow, he would feel a twinge of pain. Already he was starting to feel uncomfortable. Normally, he'd be fine, but he worked with this woman and he did not - absolutely did not - want her thinking of him any differently.
But maybe she wouldn't think anything of it. The tattoos randomly dotted around his body usually served as a distraction from such a thing. "I'm game if you're game." He made sure to put some emphasis on the 'you're'.
Rune looked at the man in front of her, her face turning a soft pink. What the hell was she doing? Her expression was still determined, unworried. A facade she was good at expressing since she was little. But her small flush gave it away just very slightly. Her heart rate was speeding up, and she realized this was probably the first time she'd ever had an experience like this in a year. And it'd been a long time since she'd been touched with any kind of care, and she longed for the touch again. But.. not from this guy right? She wasn't that desperate.
A soft smirk came onto Rune's lips as her eyes glided down his body, as if looking it over. Her hand following her gaze, up until her eyes met his again. She giggled softly, whispering softly. "I'm so game." She stated her fingers tracing his cheek. Honestly, unsure on how this would work. Why was she doing this at all?
Getting her head back on her shoulders, Rune's face lit up read for a real quick second. Before turning into a fake grin as she kneed him right where it hurt, and backed up. "Get the fuck out of my room." She spoke, turning around picking up the underwear that he had scattered about the room. Hoping to god the marker would wash out. Not that anyone would be looking at it any time soon.

Perhaps his earlier assumptions had been incorrect - Rune wasn't as experienced as she was trying to be right now. The tinge of pink on her face told him that she was faking her experience - to what end? But then again, there was always the possibility that it was the general heat of the intimacy of their position right now. Artemis knew for a fact - and hated the fact - that in times of intimacy and passion his own cheeks would turn to a subtle red colour, making them burn. He hated it, but there wasn't much he could do about it.
At the sound of Rune's - almost melodic - giggling, Artemis's lips found themselves twitching into a mix between a smirk and a smile. Briefly he closed his eyes at the feeling of her trailing her fingers across his cheek, but then he opened them again, speaking again with the intention of getting full consent and keeping his eyes on her. "Are you really s-SHIT!"
Fuck fuck FUCK FUcK fUUCk. Pain was the only thing he could feel as he keeled over forwards, eyes immediately watering as he whined and groaned in pain. "Th-That was s-so unnecessaryy!!" He cried, batting away the fletchling that came darting over to tweet and fly around his head. It really fucking hurt!! Was she expecting him to drag himself out of her room while in copious amounts of pain? To hell with that! He was staying right here until the pain had mostly subsided! Or at least until she started waving her sword around. Then he'd run with his tail between his legs.
Rune shoved the undergarments in her drawers, and slammed them shut. Turning and looking at Artemis. She leaned back and glared at him for a good while. Wow, he just looked so pathetic laying there with his hands covering his crotch. Eventually her eyebrows unfurrowed and her frown turned into a smirk, which then turned into a smile. Soon, Rune was laughing.
Watching him made her feel better instantly. She didn't know why, but to her he just seemed or liked to act like such a tough guy at times, but one little hit was all it took to take him down. Not that she hadn't before, but this was just different.
Eventually, Rune calmed down enough to pull out some ice from her mini fridge and hand it to him. "Here." She said, handing it to him. Rune honestly felt kinda bad for him, it was totally shallow and non-professional for her. "Truce." She added quickly.
It was also then, that Rune realized that due to how she got her position, that Artemis was one of the only people to accept her. Even if they could really call it that, but he certainty didn't disrespect her like most of her lower ranks. And all the sudden, she had a bit of respect for him.

After about half a minute or so of being bent over in pain, Artemis ended up having to drop to his knees and go foetal position, his forehead resting on the floor. God damn it that hurt. He was kicked riiight in the babymaker! Though, if Rune did cause some kind of problem, he was, in a way, fine with it. He wasn't intending on having more than the one he had already - she was enough.
Soon after he dropped to his knees, when the pain started to subside just a little, he started to hear laughter. Laughter. Blinking a few times in confusion - it could have been a trick of the mind - Artemis lifted his head to look over at the other Flare admin, half squinting at her. Wow, she really was laughing. What a sadist. He felt almost insulted, though to be fair, watching a guy whine and groan in pain after being kicked or kneed in the crotch was kind of funny. What he didn't expect from Rune was to be handed some ice to put to his crotch - which he was honestly kind of unwilling to do, but it was a nice gesture. "Thanks." He'd get up soon. For now, he was going to shuffle back towards the wall and sit back against it, feet planted on the floor and knees up in the air. And ice on his crotch. At least it wasn't on bare skin.
"Truce." That, he definitely agreed with. It took a moment for Artemis to say something else, but he knew that he had fucked up. He just hated saying it because of the guilty feeling he always got when he admitted when he was in the wrong. "Yeah, uh. Sorry 'bout the marker, really. Kind of bored, don't really think about things. If it doesn't wash out, I'll give you money to replace them." Money that he didn't care about at all. All he wanted to do for the past couple of weeks was spend it. It was kind of why he had so many scarves sitting in one of his apartment rooms.
Rune couldn't even remember the last time that she had laughed. In all honesty, it was a good feeling. And she wondered for a second if she started accepting Flare as her new home, would she be happier? Probably. But could she? Galactic was her home for so long... she wasn't sure if she could ever feel a part of this place. But, honestly. Something about Artemis makes her think that maybe she could belong here.
As he laid there apologizing. It honestly threw Rune off she smiled softly at him, then sat down next to him as he laid there, and poked his head. "I'll count you to that." She teased, honestly not caring. "Though, even if it doesn't come out it's no big deal, not like anyone but me is gonna see them." She shrugged.
Rune felt herself relaxing as she sat there with him. Then chuckled a little bit. What had she come too? Making friends with a common thief? How lonely can one person get. And so she laid back too. Wondering if he was going to lighten up on her at all. Honestly, she really didn't think he would and that this wasn't the last time he'd do shit like this. Telling herself she was upset about it and that she shouldn't befriend someone who bullies her.
But deep down, she really was happy to know he wouldn't stop.

What Artemis was surprised to see - and kind of tense about - was Rune coming over to sit down next to him. And his head got poked. He was, honestly, kind of confused, because he had originally assumed that Rune was one of those people that would hold a grudge for a long time. Apparently not. "But you should always be prepared in case someone does see them." He rested his head back against the wall, closing his eyes.
For the moment, he was content to just sit there and think. Or try to, at least. His thoughts felt like cars on a racecourse, zipping past so fast that they whip up a wind and almost knock you over. So, he wasn't really thinking of anything as he started to pick at his nails.
Just as he took a deep breath, he heard a chuckle from beside him. Turning his head to look at Rune, he raised an eyebrow, a curious expression on his face. "What is it?" Momentary pause, before he leaned away from her a bit. "Please tell me you're not thinking of ways to hurt me again." He gave her an over-exaggerated look of fear.
